Team Gets Stuck Into Project

The Team have thrown themselves into their project in the Elijio Panti National Park. On arrival special incense was burnt as an offering to the Jungle Spirits.

The Team digging the longdrop dug 5ft in one day;



Another group of trekkers started constructing the frame for a fire shelter;


















Whilst another group was working on maintaining the steps which take you down to a beautiful waterfall;


















As all this was going on the admin team whipped up a delicious lunch of tortilla and hummous!

The Team will spend a further 6 days at the waterfall site. They will then move up to the Cave site, where they will be making the steps that take you up to the Cave, an old Mayan offering site.

After that it is off on a six day trek through the rainforest...
